LibGuides: Ohio Condominium and Planned Community Laws: Foreclosure

Introduction

The Condominium statute provides that the Condominium Association has a lien against each unit for assessments that remain unpaid for 10 days. The Association can foreclose due to the non payment of these dues.

Foreclosure due to not paying the mortgage is covered at this libguide. Foreclosure is a complicated process. An attorney should be consulted.
